Solution

The correct option is A divisible by 2 but not necessarily by 4
Δ=∣ ∣c1a1b1c2a2b2c3a3b3∣ ∣
Applying C1C1+100C2+10C3
Δ=∣ ∣100a1+10b1+c1a1b1100a2+10b2+c2a2b2100a3+10b2+c3a3b3∣ ∣=∣ ∣a1b1c1a1b1a2b2c2a2b2a3b2c3a3b3∣ ∣
As =∣ ∣a1b1c1a1b1a2b2c2a2b2a3b2c3a3b3∣ ∣

a1b1c1,a2b2c2,a3b2c3 are even numbers.

Then Δ=2Δ1
Hence, option 'A' is correct.
